1y MBA discussion

All these alternative MBA's are worth shit. Most don't do MBA to learn. They do it for the network and brand. Throw 10 Stoa resume and 1 iim l resume to a recruiter, they will still pick that 1 Iim resume

Totally outcome based. IIM's, ISB have a stellar network. You get folks looking to hire in the alum network all the time. You do get inundated with emails apprising of job openings. Range from mid-senior to VP level on an average. Unofficially you can tap into the network to an even larger degree. But I don't think these alternative MBA's stand any chance in comparison to the former, at least in the power of networks and signalling value they present to prospective recruiters.
Only time will tell, if they are true challengers or pretenders to the throne.

Oh come on man

Do a data science or even a skill specific focused course not a general managament MBA ghat includes even specialisation saying Fin, Mktg. Now a days specific skillsets are paid more. Generalist era is over

Stoa and Mesa are dipshitlomas, Masters Union has some good placement stories but aren't even close to a real MBA. Do an MBA from KJ Somaiya, NMIMS, Welingkar (yes even WeSchool) and it's got more of an investment.
